SCHOOLS ARE AN ASSET
Good public ami high schools are
a splendid a«ect to any town and.
especially to a small country town
m in the rase of Scio.
It draws as
residents, desirable people -people
who desire to make good and useful
citizens of their children
Scio has an excellent school build
ing ami an efficient corps of teachers.
As a consequence, every availaHe
residence building In town is occu
pied bv people who are ; mi trona of
the schools.
They wanted their
children to enjoy the privilvg<*s of a
good school and picked Scio as the
place.
And the people give a loyal sup
port to our schools, too. Thev want
it to la* second to none in the county.
In addition to the High school and
the grades, a splendid Domestic
Science department is maintained,
which is liberally |>atroniied, not
only bv the pupils, but by house
wives and others.
During the past summer, all of
the walks alxiut the school building
have been layer! in cement and
modern sanitary toilets are now
provided for.
Only one more department can
lie provided, that of Industrial train
ing and a school garden, which
will make the Scio sch<a>l the equal
of if not the tanner school of the
county
No better equipment can lie given
Pi our boys and girls with which to
fight the liattlc of life, than a good
practical education, and Scio is pro
viding the means to accompiish this
end
No greater mark of enter
prise and forethought on the part
of the citizens of a town or com
munity than the modern jp-to-date
schools maintains.
One of the first
questions asked by a prospective
citizen is "how about your schools."
Good schools not only add to the
good repute, but adds to the proper
ty value of a town. It is an asset
of such value that every right think
ing citizen desires to maintain it
and. whenever possible, make It
better
MISLEADING WAR REPORTS
If one should credit European
war reports, as given in the news
dlcpatehes. he is apt to conclude
that, counting the killed, wounded
and prisoners, each belligérant army
must be greatly depleted and that '
no battles have liven lost nor won
Another fact stands out prominent-
each army knows more about the
losses of the enemy than tt knows
or tells of its own losaea.
Such misleading battle reports
msy scrompiish a purpose for the
respective armies and the countries
which supoort them, but it leaves
the outside world al sea. not know
